Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a novel alkaline protease M 3 which is useful for prevention of dental caries, a method for the preparation thereof, and a dental caries-prophylactic composition containing the alkaline protease M 3 .
  • Cariogenic microorganisms such as Streptococcus mutans or Streptococcus sanguis grow in oral cavity by taking up sucrose derived from foods etc. as a nutrient source.
  • GTF glucosyltranferase
  • Sucrose contained in oral cavity is changed to water-soluble or insoluble polysaccharides such as dextrane by the action of GTF.
  • the polysaccharides thus produced particularly water-insoluble polysaccharides coat the surface of cariogenic microorganisms and other bacteria and finally adhere onto the tooth surface to form a dental plaque.
  • Bacteria contained in the dental plaque produce acids such as lactic acid with utilization of saccharides, and the acids thus produced lyse tooth enamel, which results in appearance of dental caries.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a novel alkaline protease useful for prevention of dental caries. Another object of the invention is to provide a method for the production of the novel alkaline protease. A further object of the invention is to provide a dental caries prophylactic composition containing said alkaline protease.
